TULSA, Okla. (AP) — The U.S. attorney in Tulsa says a federal grand jury has indicted two alleged gang members on murder charges in the shooting death of a federal witness.
U.S. Attorney Danny Williams Sr. said Tuesday that 31-year-old Lorell Antonio Battle and 19-year-old Gaywone Blades were indicted on charges of murder, conspiracy to commit murder and use of a firearm in retaliation against a federal witness.
Attorneys for Battle and Blades did not immediately return after hours phone calls seeking comment.
The prosecutor says Battle and Blades conspired, then shot and killed Anthony Campbell in April after Campbell had testified in February against gang members and the gang that allegedly included Battle and Blades.
